It's still strong in Germany and even available over the web (http://www.ard-text.de/) and a mobile-friendly site with the same content: http://www.ard-text.de/mobil/100

Seems like a startup opportunity to me - citizen journalism somewhere between Twitter and Medium. 4 paragraphs, 1 image per story. I'd sign up.

Here a link to the ORF(Austrian Broadcast Station) teletext: http://teletext.orf.at/

I don't like it, I prefer more thorough news. For me the problem with reading news is not that the writers are writing too long winded, but that they don't give you enough background information.
